Praise for Gladys the Magic Chicken : "Rubin and Rex fracture mythology left and right, with a performance-worthy, aside-heavy text and comically dramatic digital cartooning . . . Gladys's feathered manifestation of that very human desire to "see magic in the world" is nothing to cluck at." -- Publishers Weekly, Praise for Gladys the Magic Chicken : "[A] magical (not to mention hilarious) tale . . . In the annals of fabulous fowl, surely Gladys reigns supreme . . . Everyone's gonna love it." -- Booklist , starred review "Rubin and Rex fracture mythology left and right, with a performance-worthy, aside-heavy text and comically dramatic digital cartooning . . . Gladys's feathered manifestation of that very human desire to "see magic in the world" is nothing to cluck at." -- Publishers Weekly "Written with a cheeky tone, this offbeat story puts a modern spin on exaggerated archetypal characters . . . Will appeal to elementary-age kids as well as adults . . . Flamboyant illustrations, unexpected adventures, and larger-than-life characters anchor this zany read-aloud." -- Kirkus Reviews, Praise for Gladys the Magic Chicken : "[A] magical (not to mention hilarious) tale . . .

The final lesson that there is magic in ordinary things (Gladys the chicken, in this case) is very sweet. Give this to the kid who has an obsession with Ancient Greece and Egypt to scratch the itch for an entertaining story set in a parody of those times. -- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
